According to police, Davis and a female companion were checking in at the Hawaiian Airlines ticket counter Sunday morning when the ticket agent “asked the usual questions about whether he was carrying any aerosol, cans, knives, weapons or explosives,” Fox 6 reported.

Davis then turned to his companion and said something to the effect of “Yeah, did you pack the explosives?” USA Today reported.

Airport police were called after Davis made the joke and arrested him on a misdemeanor charge of making a bomb threat. According to reports by USA Today, Davis was booked into a Los Angeles jail after noon on Sunday, but released shortly after posting $15,000 bail.
